The history of craps and its development

It can be said today that craps is one of the oldest games still in demand. It is probably impossible to find a gambling establishment without craps.

But it has to be said, the modern version of the game has some pretty significant differences from the one that originally appeared.

History of the game

Historians say that the game was first played in Britain in the 11th or 12th century. William of Tyre and his knights created the game to pass the time while under siege.

The original name was Hazard, probably from the name of a castle. But on the other hand it could be the word azzah, which means dice from Arabic. But perhaps the original name is not so important. The important thing is that after the Crusades, the game became very popular and in demand.

Over time, the game began to change and spread to other countries, for example, it quickly made its way to France. And wealthy people became seriously interested in it. Some say that craps has been around since France but it is not known for sure.

Evolution of the game

The game came to the U.S. territory in the early 18th century, and it was done by emigrants from France and England. For a long time, only southerners played the game, as no one else knew about it.

But even with time, when gambling was banned, interest in craps did not disappear. The game continued to be played in different places and after a while there were more global changes.

In the new version the punishment is “don’t miss a bet”, which describes it as well as possible. There’s no possibility of cheating with the dice, and it’s possible to bet not only on the player, but also against him. The updated version of the game is becoming increasingly popular in Vegas as well as online casinos.

Online gambling

The gaming industry as a whole is booming, and craps is also one of the most popular games, and it has moved to the vast expanse of the World Wide Web. Experienced players say that the feature is primarily the unpredictability of action, it’s not clear how the dice will move, how can you create a strategy that will be profitable?
